I can fathom a guess that many Halo fans will be braving the cold winter winds Monday night pick up a copy of Halo 4 at one of the game’s many midnight releases events across the United States. The popular first-person shooter will return under a new developer in 343 Industries and also see the return of everyone’s favorite soldier Master Chief as the main character. If you decide to head to the many GameStop stores scattered around the United States to pick up your copy at midnight, the retailer has revealed that 4,400 stores will be open for the event.

Maybe he will take me to GameStop?

GameStop will begin the festivities at 9pm local time, so get to your local store and have some fun before you walk home with your copy of the game when midnight finally arrives.

Be warned though, if you live on the east coast, the recent turmoil created from Hurricane Sandy has caused some problems with midnight launch events, with Assassin’s Creed III events taking the brunt of the cancellations.

GameStop has asked people to ring ahead to make sure the store is going ahead. Halo 4 will land for the Xbox 360 on November 6th, are you picking up a copy?

When not fighting crime, I dabble in the art of online journalism. Alright, maybe it's not as exciting as headbutting everyday felons like a modern Bruce Wayne, but I need something that doesn't involve bludgeoning something. Get my kicks playing on a fat 80gb PS3, really need an upgrade......and a shave.
